Google now only allows for JSON format exporting

Wow Tony, thank you so much for the guide! Finally I can convert timeline data to running apps! The .kml thing really made me stuck for more than one year... Thank you so much for the guide!

Hi Tony, this is useful Video, thank you ! I read thru all comments below, but I could not find one asking whether it is possible to merge all travelled locations between some specified dates (eg. what I have travel this month), with lines that Google Maps shows precisely in Timeline only per day (Walking, Driving, etc). That should look similar to a Road Trip Plan but after the facts. Do you know anything of such feature?

How do you export to excell? ie so you can see each day over say a year?

There doesn't appear a KML file on my computer

Useful video. Have you found a way to make use of your exported data that gives you a easy to view summary of your travels? I like how Google Maps Timeline does this, but I have data in an old Google Account with my old travel history and I haven't found a way to input that data into my current Google Account Timeline. At least if there were a way to summarize the old data I could add the major trips from the old data manually into the new account. Any thoughts?

My timeline show areas that I did not visit on the specific day?? Please help? Thanks.

I downloaded my takeout files from my old account. How do I view these files now? Can I do it on android?

[nmnac]

Is it possible to extract the time spent on a certain location like the workplace for insurance and create an excel sheet with all the data?

[zoeyfilm]

I have questions 2days ago I just open my timeline. Can I find the last 5moth ago history? Please very important to me, because my boss didn't pay my salary I need prove befoe i work here

Hello Tony,
Can all this data be downloaded in csv or excel point? What if I just need the data in a summary format of the kilometres walked and driven? Is there a way to extract that data?

[robinannerocks]

Can I download that data to track mileage history for tax purposes?

[richardbouska]

We have a Google family plan and my wife's locations show up every once in a while. Will I be able to download all hers as well? Or just those times Google messed up

[PatrickCoble]

How do you get it into G sheets? Milage, time of visit, pics you took on a given day. Great videos!

Hi Tony, I enjoyed your videos, I have a request,
can you please show how and where to create a free VPS server for Trading ? I have been looking to it on Google cloud but can't figure where I really should go

[psoup]

Either I'm missing something or takeout isn't letting people select KML as an export.

[MrShahussa]

Any idea how I can download the data for last 6 months only?
